UPDATE: At least nine people were killed and 16 injured in Toronto when a van drove into pedestrians on a busy street, officials say

EARLIER: The driver of a white van collided with multiple pedestrians on a busy street north of downtown Toronto on Monday, leaving numerous people injured along a trail of destruction stretching up to a mile, officials said.

Canada's Minister of Public Safety Ralph Goodale said there are some casualties from the collisions, but didn't offer details.

The suspected driver was in custody and the van has been located, Toronto Police media representative Gary Long said.

The absence of the driver's name has me suspicious.

Still stoned after 420?

White rental vans are too accessible to civilians. Only law enforcement should have white vans.

He don't look Muslim. Maybe another crazy. Look at the pictures. We will just have to wait. But it does seem to fit the MO of
other radicalized Muslim attacks. Another sad day.

Look, Ma! No bump-stock!

How are the chickenshits like Hoggboy gonna spin this as "gun violence"?

Doesn’t matter who or what he is, we need to ban assault vans with full automatic transmissions, only military can have it. #MarchForLives

This guy was clearly trying to suicide by cop. Look at how he keeps pointing a gun at the cops, then putting it down and raising it again. I wonder what about it made them not shoot (heck, the one officer's right in the middle of the street with no real cover, which is the weirdest thing about it to me).

(And look at all those people who just come out of the store, kind of glance at it, then sloooowly walk away).

Not sure it was a gun in the videos I saw.

Canada could avoid these types of tragedies if they had stricter gun laws.

Armenian? Also seems to be a popular surname in Iran. At least that's what the Interwebs says.
